The population of Halo infinite is dwindling and something needs to be done to reverse this. A good start would be to improve the Challenge Rewards system. I would begin with adding a daily challenge reward in the form of a small amount of credits, perhaps 10 to 25 and and maybe throw in a Challenge Swap. Perhaps require 3 to 5 simple participation challenges across social playlists to promote stable population engagement. Next I would add 50 to 200 credits and a boost/swap pack to The Weekly reward.
Lastly I would add a seasonal reward of maybe 800 to 1200 credits with more difficult challenge requirements.

TLDR
With the population dwindling, 343 should pay players to play.

Or, and just spitballing here, they could fix the issues that are causing the dwindling player numbers.
What they REALLY should do is do what MCC is doing.
You level up? Here is a token.
You complete a certain challenge? Here is another token. MAYBE EVEN TWO OR THREE depending on the challenge you completed.
And you want to get something from the Shop or the Battle Pass? Spend tokens.
We can still pay money for the stupid challenge swaps and the Premium Battle Pass, but for the love of the sacred rings; we need a business model that is MUCH more consumer friendly.

MCC’s Seasonal and Event challenge tab also features more points and XP for clearing them too, especially since those are the “long term” Challenges where they expect you to spend 3 months to complete. You can grind them out in a day, sure, but they are lengthy and award large amount of points and xp which fits the challenge.
Infinite in general just never matches the reward to the effort. Period. This needs to change.

I remember having a challenge a while back to get 5 kills with the sidekick. No biggie. 300xp. 5 kills. Not bad.
LATER THAT SAME WEEK I GOT THE CHALLENGE THAT MADE ME TRULY REALIZE THAT THIS WAS BS.
A challenge with the same name.
A challenge that requested me to get 15 kills with the Sidekick.
The kicker?
For 3x the work, I only get a 1/6 bonus of experience points.
5 kills for 300xp
turned into
15 kills for 350xp

Easy to say to just fix things, and while you’re absolutely right in saying that, the problem we have right now is we don’t have a sweet clue when / if they will/can be fixed.
So some incentive to keep the dwindling player base engaged and maybe even encourage spending isn’t that radical of an idea until we get on more stable ground.
